Let's briefly introduce the plot: The male protagonist Conor strikes up a conversation with the girl, saying that he has a band and wants the girl to shoot the MV. After the deception was successful, Conor hurried to form a band. Although I didn't know anyone at the new school and I didn't know much about it myself, the band actually formed and its name was Sing Street.
So I said (knock on the blackboard) - I want to flirt with girls and form a band! !
Of course, what the movie wants to talk about is far more than how to flirt with girls, but the consistent theme of director John Carney, music saves the world.
John Carney's "Once" and "Begin Again" are two frustrated people who meet, form a band, and change because of music. This time, in "Sing Street", it is still the same core, but the protagonists are younger. Oh yes, and this time the girl didn't sing.
Before social baptism, teenagers also have their own troubles: quarrelsome parents, mean teachers, chaotic schools, uncertain love, and tormenting ideals and futures. Fortunately there is music. John Carney says there's no problem that can't be solved with a band.
Conor in this story is constantly growing. The boy in the band at the end of the film has been reborn, no longer the one that "looked weak", no longer trapped in the previous troubles, and entered a new stage of life.
There are two supporting characters in the film that I like too much, my friend Eamon and my brother Brendan. Eamon is talented and has a great love for rabbits. Eamon is the best companion and supporter. Always writing songs together, always answering "Let's do it" to Conor's thoughts.
And brother Brendan, like a guide, can always provide guidance and help in all aspects of Conor's music, feelings and life. Brendan is actually a distressing character. He once had a bloody ideal, but it never came true. For the complaints and anguish in life, use unruly to bury. Buried so deep that Conor didn't know anything about it before the explosion. In the end, after sending Conor away, Brendan raised his arms and cheered, because Conor had the dream that he had been stifled back then, and because of Conor, he let down some of the regrets he once had.
Carney's musical films never end with the approval of those who have pushed the protagonist to failure. On the contrary, in the end they do not need such approval. At the final performance of "Sing Street", even though most of the audience didn't want to listen to the slow song, Conor insisted on singing it; even though the teacher warned him, the band led everyone to resist and sing mockery.
"This could be all of ours first and last gig. Ready to do it ?"
"Let's go!"
The ending of this film, compared to "Once" and "Begin Again", is more youthful and enthusiastic. With dreams and passion, the hero and heroine jumped on the boat and rushed to the unknown future.
The future may be the cruelty of reality and may be all kinds of setbacks. But what about him, it's the same as the ending song sung by Sao Dang, Go Now
